This paper conceptualizes separation-individuation conflicts in caregivers as behavior under the dual control of the nonverbal and verbal antecedents and consequences of others, (e.g., care receiver and professional staff) and the dysfunctional self-rules of the caregiver. Two types of treatment are described, in the context of a case study, that address each of two types of controlling events. The first type of treatment involved changing the care receiver's problem behaviors by training the nursing home staff in applied behavior analysis procedures. The second type involved teaching the caregiver to critically examine her self-rules by more accurately describing her own and others' behavior.
